FAQ

Phase 1 and Phase 2 are located at 2120 and 2180 Sainte-Catherine Street East respectively in Montréal, Canada.

Esplanade Cartier is a large-scale project developed in lots, which are subdivided into phases. Each one is uniquely laid out to ensure a diversity of products, clienteles, and uses. Some lots do not have any condos, which may lead to confusion between the lot number and the condo phase number (for example, Phase 2 is not located on Lot 2). The site will be developed over a six- to eight-year period.
